Because it breaks Rule 1

Refrain from using harmful language pertaining to a protected characteristic: e.g. race, gender, sexuality, disability or religion.

What about all the other bad words...

[-] Numuruzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 year ago

A little bit of cultural linguistics going on really. Even though the texts are also calling OOP gay and queer, and doing so with the same amount of vitriol as with the f-slur, they aren't recognized as emotionally charged in the same way. All the other cursing is not hate speech per se as it's not directly targeting any immutable characteristics.

This is a civilized society. We have rules you know

I'm not happy with any of the depicted harassment in the image (fake or not), it just not that funny. If you want to see what happens if you have a descenting opinion though, you can see my massively downvoted post below.

you can see my massively downvoted post

Is it doubling in size?

[-] ArmokGoB@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 year ago

OP isn't using it. He's quoting someone else using it.

Then it breaks Rule 5:

No content that harasses members within or outside of the community.

[-] ADTJ@feddit.uk 13 points 1 year ago

That's ridiculous, quoting harassment is in no way itself harassment. That would undo just about every awareness campaign ever.

[-] Isoprenoid@programming.dev -4 points 1 year ago

Depends on the reason for the quote. Awareness campaigns quote them as examples of what not to do. There is a clear intention to tell the audience "Watch out for this, avoid it, this is wrong."

The punchline in this example is an encouragement to harass people because it's funny.
